Zoo

The tortoises were tumbling

The bumblebees were bumbling

The pandas were meandering

The pangolins were dangling

The pelicans were pondering

The wallabies were wandering


The mandrills were admiring

The penguins were perspiring

The manatees were muttering

The scorpions were spluttering

The cockatoos were doodling

The catfish were canoodling


The chimpanzees were chest-beating

The anteaters were ant-eating

The porcupines were prattling

The buffalos were battling

The wildebeests were wiggling

The seahorses were squiggling


And what did the human do?

He wrote this poem all about

The creatures in the zoo
